<p>Thanks for your suggestions. I’ve heard great things about Carleton and Macalester and will look into them further. I know what you mean about the Midwestern manner, which I like very much.</p>
<p>Does anyone know if Haverford has a highly competitive atmosphere? I hear about the Honor Code and the school’s Quaker roots, and I think it probably isn’t cut-throat. Can someone comment?</p>
